PHIPPS TAKES LEAD AT LYNN CAMP,
PATTERSON TO COACH KNOX CENTRAL
BY MICHAELA MILLER
For The Mountain Advocate
It looks as if there is going to be a
new “Dinky Dome.” Former Barbourville coach, Vencil “Dinky” Phipps, was
confirmed on Tuesday afternoon as Lynn
Camp’s new 2015-16 head coach for the
boys’ basketball team.
Phipps applied for the job, that was
recently posted. The school came to the
decision that Phipps would be the best fit
as head coach.
“We’re very excited to have Phipps on
board,” said Anthony Pennington, Principal of Lynn Camp Schools. “As of now,
we’re just moving forward and expecting
great things.”
Pennington had no further comment as
an official press conference will be held
at the Lynn Camp auditorium on Friday at
10 a.m.
Phipps has left a lasting mark at Barbourville Independent Schools and helped
mold the Tigers’ tradition. He coached 34
seasons at Barbourville High, as well as collecting 622 wins and leading the team to six
13th Region All “A” Classic Championships.
With Phipp’s history, Lynn Camp’s
basketball program could benefit greatly

jailer said drugs had been found
in the bed with Vanover. Deputy
Liford conducted an investigation recovering a plastic bag
containing Methamphetamine

Liford determined the drugs had

Barbourville firefighters
responded to two unrelated
house fires Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.
The first fire happened
around 5:30 p.m. Saturday
night on Gothic Lane.
Family members say the
fire happened when the
home’s resident, Raymond
Rice, flipped the house’s
breaker back on after it
blew.
Neighbors witnessed
at least two oxygen tanks
flying out of the house - like
torpedoes - one into the
woods, and another directly
into the side of a trailer in
back.

became engulfed. As the
smoke was too much for

house the Rice’s neighbor,
David Jordan, tried to coax
the Rices’ two Chihuahuas
out; however, he could only

An unrelated fire occurred around 6 a.m.
Sunday morning on Whitesburg Hollow off KY 3439. No
information is known about
that fire.

“Dad was a family man,” said
Samantha Messer, of the late Dennis
Dozier, a 33-year veteran firefighter
with the Barbourville Fire Department.
“Family came first, that’s what he
was built on, she said. “He was always
so outgoing, he loved to travel and
take us on vacations.”
Firefighting runs in the Dozier family.
Dennis Dozier served alongside his
older brother, Doug, the current Fire
Chief of Barbourville Fire Department,
several nephews, a brother-in-law and
two great nephews.
“Sometimes I would go with daddy
to a fire,” recalls Messer. “I would have
to sit in the truck, but he would let me
go. It was exciting. Firefighting was a
big part of my childhood.”
Fellow firefighter Alva Patterson
served with Dozier for 28 years. He
says Dozier was a “sports enthusiast.”
Dozier played softball for many years,
coached little league and refereed
basketball.
“I remember we went to 13 NASCAR
races in one summer,” Patterson said,

“We always went to Daytona, Bristol
and Talladega at least.”
Patterson says it was Dozier’s concern for others that drove him to be a
firefighter.
Denny Dozier received full department honors including his “ Last Call”
from Dispatch as he was laid to rest
Saturday, July 18, at the Barbourville
Cemetery.

City welcomes
newest business
Corbin Middle
principal resigns
BY DEAN MANNING
For the Mountain Advocate
Corbin Middle School is
searching for a new principal after Jennifer Parsons
resigned to take a position
with the Harlan City School
System.
“I needed to try to get
back closer to my home
with a growing family,”
said Parsons when asked
why she elected to leave.
Parsons and her husband maintain a home in
Harlan and she commutes
to Corbin each day.
Parsons,
who
has
worked in the Corbin
school system since 2001,
was named principal at
the middle school in 2013.
Prior to that, she taught
science and social studies
at the middle school and
coached the Corbin High
School girls’ basketball
team.
“I have been fortunate,”
Parsons said of her time in
Corbin. “I have been blessed to be working with
great teachers, administrators and coaches.”
“I have been part of a
middle school that has
tested in the top of the
state,” she said.
Parsons said one of the
lessons she learned at
Corbin is what a school
system can accomplish
when everyone involved is
focused on doing what is
best for the students.
“Everything
revolves
around a collaborative effort here and I think that is
why Corbin is successful,”
Parsons said.
Parsons said the thing
she will miss most is the
relationships she has developed.
“The community has
welcomed me, and I have
become a part of it as a
teacher, coach and principal,” Parsons said.
Parsons interviewed for
the position of Director of
District Wide Services for
Instruction and Assessment.

The Oven Mitt celebrated its third week with
an official ribbon cutting
on Tuesday, July 21. The
Oven Mitt offers a wide
range of dishes, including
chicken and dumplings,
baked potatoes, steak and
sandwiches.
“Everyone seems to
love it,” said co-owner
Tonya Liford, “We don’t
specialize in one particular thing, we have something for everyone.”
The owners, Anthony
and Tonya Liford, plan to
expand seating within the
next couple of weeks to
include a banquet room for
overflow seating and special events. The banquet
room is expected to seat
an additional 30 people.
The Oven Mitt’s hours of
operation are:
Sunday-Tuesday: 10:30
a.m. to 4 p.m.; Wednesday-Saturday: 10:30 a.m.
to 9 p.m.

Correction
In a story on page 1A of the July 16 edition of The
Mountain Advocate, a quote was mistakenly credited
to Vernon Liford. The quote was actually made by
another parent who, according to Liford, had a son
who transfered to Barbourville City School.

Why are so many people talking about gay marriage?
We have lots of serious issues in our county.
Even law officials admit
that the abuse of illegal
drugs is widespread. It is
a serious problem, and
it hurts our local citizens
financially, physically,
and emotionally.
Also, thousands of us
are impacted every day
by the economic struggles our region faces.
Poverty here is excessively high.
Our health care system,
limited treatment options
and local lifestyle choices
cause us to experience
diseases like obesity,
diabetes, and hyperten-

sion at astonishingly high
rates. Many of us have
lost friends and family far
to soon because of this
problem.
Yet, despite these critical issues facing so many
of us, what are local
people talking about?
Aside from Knox County district high schools
both having new men’s
basketball coaches,
much of the talk on local
streets this week still
seems to be about gay
marriage.
So, I decided to do
some research. Here’s
what I found out.
Since the Supreme
Court’s recent ruling
on gay marriage, Knox
County has had only one
same sex couple request
a marriage license. Surrounding counties Laurel, and Bell also have issued only one each, and
Clay County has issued
none as of our press
deadline. Six people
across a four-county area
represent a miniscule
fraction of one percent of
the population.
But, although the law
actually applies to very
few local people, it
remains a political hot
button. The Kentucky
Association of Counties
(KACO) sent a notice
to all Judge-Executives
statewide suggesting, for
insurance purposes, they
either stop performing
marriages, or perform
marriages for all who
meet the new legal requirements. Knox Judge
Executive J.M. Hall tells
me he has decided to
stop conducting weddings entirely.
County Clerk Mike
Corey faces a different
situation. After the ruling
by our nation’s supreme
court, the governor of our
state issued instructions.
He told county court
clerks because it is part
of their official duty to
issue marriage licenses,
they must do so for all
couples that meet the
new legal requirements.
He specifically told them
to comply, regardless of
their personal religious
beliefs. So the Knox
clerk, and at least 117
others, are obeying the
law.
So, what is the deal?
What causes the gay
marriage issue to still
have so many people
talking about something
that actually involves so
few? What do you think?

Stinking Creek
News
Irma Gall
Lend-A-Hand Center
above sulfur spring to
John Bargo’s agreed
line;…to Jesse Tuggle’s
line …etc.”
Sometime after 1938,
the story goes that Gabe
Bargo, with the help of
a neighbor, Spur Bargo,
put together a typical
two-room log cabin with
an oak board lean-to
kitchen on that property.
Heresay has it they used
a combination of logs
from another old log
building along with logs
cut on the property. That
could explain why some
of the logs are flat hued
while others are round,
some are of different
type of trees and some
of the corners are flat
joined while others are
slanted.
All that property was
sold to Willard and R. P.
Mills in April 1971 who
then, two years later,
sold the land and cabin
to Sue Richards, who
was then a volunteer at
Lend-A-Hand Center. By
this time, the cabin and
property had been vacant
for several years, so it
was almost unlivable. It
was slowly repaired and
used as a getaway cabin.
Then in August 1976, Sue
and Irma worked hard
at making it their home
for 13 years while they
continued working at the
Center.
In 1989, Sue purchased
property in Middlesboro
where she operated a Bed
and Breakfast. In the
mid- 1990’s Irma, with the
help of many volunteers,
took the cabin apart piece
by piece, log by log, very
carefully numbering and
recording each piece. Finally, in the spring of 2005,
we re-assembled that log
cabin, trying to recapture the look of so many
homes found on Stinking
Creek 50 years ago. Care
was taken to capture the
look of the housing of so
many people in the area.
We wanted to remind
passersby of “the cabin
that my grandparents lived
in.”
And that is the short
story of how the cabin
from way up Salt Gum
became a fixture on the
Lend-A-Hand property
on Stinking Creek. That
leads to many stories of
life at So Much, the name
they gave that cabin.

Driving up Big Creek of
Stinking Creek on Ky 718
about four miles above
the Dewitt school you
would find the LendA-Hand Center, which
has a landmark of a
high bridge over Stinking Creek. Peggy and
Irma designed and
built the bridge in 19591960, using the idea of
some of the railroad trestles in the coal country.
Another landmark you
might see is a restored
log cabin nestled on a
knoll facing the road.
How did the Bargo’s log
cabin from four miles
up “Bargers” Creek on
Salt Gum find its way to
Big Creek? Maybe you
would know some of the
names associated with
that building.
According to the
records I have on hand,
the property was bought
by Gabe and Axie Bargo
from Bill and Florence
Mills near Dec. 10, 1938.
Then an adjoining parcel
was bought from Rufus
and Mary J. Bargo in February 1944. The following
names and words were
used in the description of
the land: “…a conditional line of Abe and Peter
Bargo …thence with
the drain to the forks
of the drean…divides

Corbin firefighters save baby’s life
BY DEAN MANNING
Corbin firefighters are
trained to use the Jawsof-Life to rescue victims
trapped in twisted steel,
but Firefighter Anthony
Horton recently called
upon his EMT training to
snag a newborn’s life from
the jaws of death.
Firefighters Andy Melton,
Anthony Horton, Tommy McDaniel and Trevor
Allen were called to the
residence at 230 Hatfield
Street in Knox County
about 3:45 a.m. on June
24 where a woman was in
the process of giving birth.
According to Corbin
Police Captain Scott Grove,
when firefighters arrived,
the woman had given
birth but the child was not
breathing.
Firefighter Horton took
the baby and began stimulation in an effort to get
it to breathe. When that
didn’t work, he cut the
umbilical cord.
“The baby opened it’s
eyes for a second, but still
wasn’t breathing normally,” Horton said.
Horton began chest
compressions, and after
10 to 15 compressions the
baby began breathing on
its own.
The firefighters then
gave the baby oxygen and
Pictured from left to right are Firefighters Andy Melton and Anthony Horton, Fire Chief Barry McDonald, and firefighters Tommy McDaniel and Trevor Allen.
Knox EMS arrived to transport the mother and baby
to Baptist Health Corbin.
“Your training takes
over,” said Horton, who
has been an EMT since
1999. “You remain calm
and do what you need to
do.”
Horton, who was driving
the pumper truck to the
call, said firefighters have
responded to numerous
calls over the years concerning women who have
gone into labor.
“I thought we would
get there and help EMS
load the woman into the
ambulance and take her to
the hospital,” Horton said.
“Then we got another call
from dispatch that police
were on scene and the
woman was giving birth.”
“This is the first time I
have been on a call where
the baby was actually
here,” he said.
Horton drove the ambulance to Baptist Health
Corbin while the ambulance crew worked with
the baby.
Horton said hospital
officials told him that the
mother and child were
both doing well.
“I’m very proud of him,”
Corbin Fire Chief Barry
McDonald said of Horton,
who has been with the
department since 2008.
“He saved a life.”
“Usually, when we go
on a run, it is death and
carnage,” he said. “Horton brought a life into this
world.”
The four firefighters
were subsequently recognized at Monday’s meeting
of the Corbin City Commission with a Certificate of
Merit.

missioners.
In addition, flies have
swarmed to the feces and
are attracted to McCracken
or anyone else that comes
out of his house.
“The flies will eat you
up,” McCracken said, adding that if the weather is
cool, he still can’t open the
windows to his home.
McCracken presented
the commissioners with a
petition signed by numerous other residents in the
area, asking that the city
take action.
Corbin City Manager
Marlon Sams said he went
out to the site last week
and agreed that something
must be done.
Corbin Building Inspector Frank Burke said he
has also been out there
and has issued a notice of
violation to the property
owner, whom he identified
as the tenant’s mother.
Burke added that he has
spoken with the occupant
who has agreed to clean
up the feces.
An attempt to speak with
someone at the residence
ended with mixed re-
sults. The individual who
answered the door would
not confirm it was the correct address and declined
to give her name.
However, she said the
issue was part of a dispute
between neighbors and
the owner of the chickens was in the process of
selling them in an effort to
resolve the situation.
Burke said the notice
gives a deadline of Friday
to show progress. If no
progress is made, Burke
may issue a citation for violating the city’s nuisance
ordinance.
According to one city
official, the owner of the
coops reported Tuesday
that he had gotten rid of
all of the chickens and
was preparing to pressure
wash the area around the
coops.
Corbin City Attorney Bob
Hammons asked Burke
and Sams to prepare a
rough draft of the ordinance for him to review.
“It may take a little bit,
but we will do something,”
Commissioner Joe Shelton
told McCracken.
In other business Monday:
• Corbin Downtown
Director Andy Salmons
announced that the
downtown program had
purchased a used trolley
bus from Eastern Kentucky University for $6,325
through an Ebay auction.
Salmons noted that the
trolley, which can carry
up to 30 people, has heat
and air conditioning, and
meets Americans with
Disabilities Act access requirements, needs minor
engine repairs that may be
done at the city garage.
Prior to purchase, employees at the city garage
went to Richmond to
inspect the trolley.
Salmons noted the engine has 14,000 miles on it.
“Brand new, you are
talking $120,000 for one of
these,” Salmons said.
Salmons said he envisions the trolley being
used to shuttle tourists
from The Arena, Keeneland, and area hotels to
downtown.
In addition the trolley
may be used during events

preparation for their use by
Toyota in Georgetown and
other assembly plants in
Tennessee.
Company officials have
said previously that when
production begins in February the plant will employee
approximately 10 people.
That number is expected to
triple to 30 by 2018.
While walking through the
area where the production
line is, Takahashi explained
that, if needed, the building
could house one-and-a-half
additional lines.
Based on company policy
of keeping facilities small
and to keep a familial atmosphere, if production need-
ed to be expanded further,
Kowa officials would look
to open a new facility.
“We are excited that you
are here and making Kentucky your home,” Grimes
told Takahashi, adding that
she hopes if the company
expands further, it will,
once again, consider Kentucky.

Shortly after he was
arrested, Vanover escaped
after being let out of the
deputy’s patrol car. A short
time after his escape,
Vanover was arrested,
along with Lisa Rene Mills,
age 50, in her residence on
Sycamore Street in Barbourville.
After being lodged in the
Knox County Detention
Center on July 14, Vanover
became unresponsive and
was taken to the ICU at

David McCracken is facing
when he steps into his
back yard, the city commission is considering implementing an ordinance
regulating the housing of
livestock inside the city
limits.
McCracken, who lives
at 310 Fourth Street, came
before the commission
Monday night with concerns about a neighbor at
311 Third Street, who has
built coops in the back
yard to keep chickens and
ducks.
McCracken said there
are approximately 12 to
15 coops in the 30-by-30
yard that backs up to his
property.
It is not the noise that is
the problem, but the smell
of the feces the animals
excrete that McCracken
says the neighbor permits
to lie on the ground.
“It smells so bad that we
can’t go in my back yard,”
McCracken told the com-

• Recognized Corbin
firefighters Anthony
Horton, Trevor Allen,
Andy Melton and Tommy
McDaniel for their efforts
to save a newborn baby’s
life. While Horton is the
firefighter that performed
CPR on the child, Allen,
Melton and McDaniel were
part of the four-man crew
that responded to the call
of a woman in labor.
When firefighters
arrived, the woman had
given birth and the child
was not breathing.
Firefighters worked with
the mother and child until
Knox EMS arrived and then
assisted EMS in loading
and transporting the
patients to Baptist Health

Each firefighter received
a certificate of merit.

NOTIFICATION OF
FERPA RIGHTS
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy
Act (FERPA) affords
parents and “eligible students” (students 18 years
of age or older or students who are attending a
postsecondary institution)
certain rights with respect
to the student’s education
records. They are:
The right to inspect
and review the student’s
education records within
forty-five (45) days of the
day the District receives a
request for access.
Parents or eligible
students should submit
to the school Principal/
designee a written request that identifies the
record(s) they wish to
inspect. The Principal will
make arrangements for
access and notify the parent or eligible student of
the time and place where
the record(s) may be inspected.
The right to inspect
and review logs documenting disclosures of
the student’s education
records.
Except for disclosure
to school officials, disclosures related to some
judicial orders or lawfully
issued subpoenas, disclosures of directory information, and disclosure
to the parent or eligible
student, FERPA regulations require the District
to record the disclosure.
The right to request
the amendment of the
student’s education records that the parent or
eligible student believes
are inaccurate, misleading, or in violation of the
student’s privacy or other
rights.
Parents or eligible students may ask the District
to amend a record that
they believe is inaccurate,
misleading, or in violation
of privacy or other rights.
They should write the
school Principal, clearly
identify the part of the record they want changed,
and specify why it is inaccurate, misleading, or in
violation of their privacy
or other rights.
If the District decides
not to amend the record
as requested by the parent or eligible student,
the District will notify the
parent or eligible student
of the decision and advise him\her of the right
to a hearing regarding the
request for amendment.
Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided
to the parent or eligible
student when notified of
the right to a hearing.
The right to provide
written consent prior to
disclosure of personally
identifiable information
contained in the student’s
education records, except
to the extent that FERPA
authorizes disclosure
without consent.
Exceptions that permit
disclosure without consent include:
a. D i s c l o s u r e
to school officials with
legitimate educational interests. A “school official”
is a person employed
by the District as an administrator, supervisor,
instructor, or support staff
member (including health
or medical staff and law
enforcement unit personnel); a person serving
on the school Board; a
volunteer, or an outside
person or company with
whom the District has
contracted to perform
a special task (such as
an attorney, auditor,
medical consultant, or
therapist); or a parent
or student serving on
an official committee,
such as a disciplinary or
grievance committee, or
assisting another school
official in performing his/
her tasks.
A school official has
a legitimate educational
interest if the official
needs to review an education record in order to
fulfill his/her professional
responsibility to the District.
This may include
contractors, consultants,
volunteers, and other
parties to whom the District has outsourced services or functions.
Upon request, disclosure of education
records without parent/
eligible student notice
or consent to officials of
another school district or
post-secondary institution in which a student
seeks or intends to enroll or is already enrolled
or to other entities authorized by law so long
as the disclosure is for
purposes related to the
student’s enrollment or
transfer.
c. D i s c l o s u r e
of information to those
whose knowledge of
such information is necessary to respond to an
actual, impending, or
imminent articulable and
significant health/safety
threat.
Disclosure to state
and local educational
authorities and accrediting organizations, subject to requirements of
FERPA regulations.
Designated Kentucky
State agencies may be
permitted access to student record information,
which will depend on the
authority granted to their
particular agency.
The right to notify
the District in writing to
withhold information the
Board has designated
as directory information
as listed in the annual
directory information
notice the District provides to parents/eligible
students.
To exercise this right,
parents/eligible students
shall notify the District by
the deadline designated
by the District.
The right to prohibit
the disclosure of personally identifiable information concerning
the student to recruiting
representatives of the U.
S. Armed Forces and its
service academies, the
Kentucky Air National
Guard, and the Kentucky

Child Find for Children
with Disabilities in
Need of Special Education or 504 Services
The Knox County
School District keeps
educational records in a
secure location in each
school and Board office.
The Knox County
School District obtains
written consent from a
parent or eligible student (age 18 or who is
attending a postsecondary institution), before
disclosing personally
identifiable information
to an entity or individual
not authorized to receive
it under FERPA.
For students who
have been determined
eligible for Special Education, educational records will be destroyed
at the request of the
parents when they are
no longer needed to
provide educational programs or services. The
Knox County School
District may destroy the
educational records of
a child without parent
request three (3) years
after they are no longer
needed to provide educational programs or
services. Parents are
advised that data contained in the records
may later be needed for
Social Security benefits
or other purposes. The
Knox County School District may retain, for an
indefinite period of time,
a record of the student’s
name, address, telephone number, grades,
attendance records,
classes attended, grade
level completed, and
year completed.
Children eligible for
Special Education include those children with
disabilities who have
autism, deaf-blindness,
developmental delay,
emotional-behavior disability, hearing impairment, mental disability,
multiple disabilities,
orthopedic impairment,
other health impairment,
specific learning disability, speech or language
impairment, traumatic
brain injury, or visual
impairment and who
because of such an impairment need Special
Education services.
504 services include
those children in a public
elementary and secondary education program
who have a current
physical or mental impairment that currently
substantially limits some
major life activity which
causes the student’s
ability to access the
school environment or
school activities to be
substantially limited.
the State-Funded Preschool program include
three- and four-year-old
children identified with
disabilities and fouryear-old children who
are at-risk, as defined
by federal poverty levels
up to 150%. Preschool
children eligible for
special education must
have an Individual Education Plan (IEP) instead
of a 504 plan to receive
State-Funded Preschool
program services.
The Knox County
School District has an
ongoing “Child Find”
system, which is designed to locate, identify
and evaluate any child
residing in a home, facility, or residence within
its geographical boundaries, age three (3) to
twenty-one (21) years,
who may have a disability and be in need of
Special Education or 504
services. This includes
children who are not in
school; those who are in
public, private, or home
school; those who are
highly mobile such as
children who are migrant
or homeless; and those
who are advancing from
grade to grade, who
may need but are not
receiving Special Education or 504 services.
The district’s “Child
Find” system includes
children with disabilities attending private or
home schools within the
school district boundaries who may need special education services.
The Knox County
School District will
make sure any child
enrolled in its district
who qualifies for Special Education or 504
services, regardless of
how severe the disability, is provided appropriate Special Education
or 504 services at no
cost to the parents of
the child.
Parents, relatives,
public and private
agency employees, and
concerned citizens are
urged to help the Knox
County School District
find any child who may
have a disability and
need Special Education
or 504 services. The
District needs to know
the name and age, or
date of birth of the child;
the name, address, and
phone number(s) of the
parents or guardian;
the possible disability;
and other information to
determine if Special Education or 504 services
are needed.
Letters and phone
calls are some of the
ways the Knox County
School District collects
the information needed.
The information the
school District collects
will be used to contact
the parents of the child
and find out if the child
needs to be evaluated
or referred for Special
Education or 504 services.
If you know of a
child who lives within
the boundaries of the
Knox County School
District, who may have
a disability, and may
need but is not receiving Special Education
or 504 services, please

Appalachian Service Project completes
another successful summer
BY EMILY BAKER
Reporter
The Appalachian Service Project (APS)
prepares for its seventh and final week in
Knox County. Over the course of the summer hundreds of volunteers have worked
on 16 eligible homes in Knox County.
As one of four full-time seasonal staff,
Tess Cassidy’s day begins at 6:30 a.m.
“They are long days for us but they’re
rewarding.”
Courtney Centrello, another full-time seasonal staff, says, “We try to make homes
warmer, safer and drier.” Projects range
from installing new flooring and insulation to building safer decks. APS, which
was founded in Knox county in 1969, has
grown to include 31 centers throughout the
south-eastern United States and, thanks
to volunteers and donations, are able to
accept one in four applicants.
Glen Lawson, an applicant who received
new flooring, a deck, and counter tops,
says he is very grateful for the volunteers.
“They’ve made a big difference, and
they’ve all been so nice.” If you would like
more information on the application process, visit www.asphome.org, The Lend-AHand Center or KCEOC.
Above left, Jake Street, 17, assists Caroline Wright, 17, with installing underpinning. Above right, the crew built Lawson a new
deck to provide a safe second exit to his home. From left to

YOUNGSTERS TAKE TO STRIDER RACE COURSE
BY EMILY BAKER
Reporter
BY FRANK SHELTON
Knox Central High School has scheduled
Getting Started sessions for new and returning students for the 2015-2016 academic year.
Seniors will meet with guidance counselors on either July 27 or July 28, 10am
to 7pm daily, to review their schedule and
graduation requirements and to complete
paperwork.
Returning Juniors will meet on August
3, Sophomores on August 4, and Freshmen on August 5, anytime between 10am
and 7pm daily. New students will meet
with counselors and complete enrollment
paperwork on July 30 and July 31, 8am
to 3pm daily. A parent/guardian must be
present with students during the Getting
Started sessions in order to finalize paperwork.
All freshmen are encouraged to participate in Freshman Orientation on August
11, 8am to 12pm. Students will report for
the entire time to learn more about being
a high school student. Transportation will
be provided and additional details will be
shared during registration.
For more information about Getting
Started sessions please contact the school
at 606-546-9253.

Saturday’s heat wave didn’t
stop the determined young girls
at the Strider Race hosted by
Union College Cycling Team at
the Barbourville Bike Skills Park.
Emma Gray, 4, of Manchester,
and Lucy Wilson, 2, of Corbin
were the first to officially break
in the new Strider course built by
Union College Cycling Team. Colby Wilson, of Gonzo Speed Shop,
sells the pedal-less balance bikes
from his shop in Corbin.
He explains the benefits of the
bikes, “according to a study performed by the University of Colorado, Strider bikes have shown to
improve balance in kids by up to
20 percent.” Although the sport is
relatively new to the area, Wilson
believes it is sure to take off,
“Right now it’s all about exposure. Out west it’s really big, but
we just don’t have many dealers
here. But, once kids come in and
try them, they’re hooked!”
Wilson has organized two
more Strider races this season,
Aug. 8 and Aug. 15, for children
ages 18 months to five years. For
more information contact Colby
Wilson at Gonzo Speed Shop

CONFEDERATE
FLAG A SYMBOL
OF HISTORY
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
Editor
Not everyone is happy to
see the Confederate flag
displayed in plain sight,
but Corbin resident, Bubba
Hall, says not one person
has ever complained to his
face.
“There have been negative comments made on
the web, but I ignore them
for the cowards that they
are,” said Hall. “If someone wants to know why
I fly the flag, all they have
to do is ask me. It’s not for
the reasons these cyber
bullies are trying to make
everyone believe.”
Austin Hall, or Bubba to
everyone who knows him,
and his family have proudly flown the Confederate
flag in their front lawn for
more than 15 years. The
family lives on US 25S,
and the Confederate flag,
along with a homemade
cannon created by Hall’s
dad, Harold, are displayed
a mere 20 yards off the
highway.
People call me a racist
and a bigot because I fly
the Confederate flag,” said
Hall, “but the truth is I’m
a Son of the Confederate
Veterans and a Civil War
reenactor. I’m not hiding
behind a flag. I’m proud of
my southern heritage.”
Hall’s ancestry traces
back to his great-great
uncle, John Messer, of the
37th Virginia Company D,
who fought in the War Between the States. Although
Messer was actually from
Tennessee, he fought with
the state of Virginia because Tennessee had not
at that time yet seceded
from the Union.
The Halls can trace their
family lineage all the way
back to 1640 when their
early ancestors came
across the ocean from
Scotland and England, and
the family even has census
reports dating back to the
1840s.
So, when Hall flies a
Confederate flag, he is
making a statement, a
statement that says he will
not forget, nor let others
forget, those who died in
that terrible war. Even as
a Civil War reenactor, Hall
often marches shoe-less
in order to give people a
glimpse of just how bad
the southern soldiers had
it; the soldiers, he said,
that would sometimes
have to march as much
as 20 miles at a time and
then fight a battle, often
without any covering for
their feet.
Bubba Hall became
interested in his family’s
heritage when he was still
a child. At only nine years
old, the young boy began
reenacting as a Civil War
soldier, and he has been
searching and recording
his family’s history since
he was in the seventh
grade.
“I love my southern
heritage,” said Hall. “The
Confederate soldiers were
only fighting for what they
believed in at the time.
They were fighting against
a government they felt was
treating them like garbage.
The flag I fly represents the
courage and the will my

The Shillalah Creek Trail,
used to access the historic
Hensley Settlement in Cumberland Gap National Historical Park, has been closed to
all visitor use due to severe
damage caused by the recent heavy rains. Deep ruts
and undercutting of road
edges have made the 4.6
mile long road impassable
and very unstable. Heavy
water continues to run off of
the mountain and down the
road, continuing to erode its
surface and subsurface. Any
type of visitor use – whether
by pedestrians, horses, bicycles or vehicles - could result
in serious injury. Hensley
Settlement tours, conducted by park staff, have been
cancelled for the season.
The August 12th Shooting
Star Spectacular at Hensley
Settlement has also been
cancelled.
Superintendent Sula Jacobs remarks: “We are sad
that so many park visitors
who eagerly take the park
tour or otherwise visit Hensley Settlement via Shilillah
Creek Trail will not be able
to do so until proper repairs
are made. Our priority remains safety for park visitors, volunteers, and staff.”
Robert Beech, the park’s
Facilities
Manager,
describes the damage as astounding. “Damage to the
road is readily apparent
near Shillalah Falls, which
right now is roaring! We’ve
discovered one rut that is at
least four feet deep. Culverts
have been exposed. Banks
are undercut and as water
is still flowing over the road,
there will be additional and
significant damage. Repair
of the road will take time
with the road being so unstable, we’ll literally have to
creep along with the heavy
equipment that will be required to make the necessary repairs.”
Though the Shillalah
Road is closed indefinitely, Superintendent Jacobs
encourages all to visit their
national park. “The park’s
team can recommend alternate tours and trails to take.
The park Calendar of Events
ancestors had to stand up
against that government.”
And now, Bubba Hall
is about to take another
stand. With the support of
the Sons of the Confederate Veterans, Hall plans to
lead a rally on July 24 at
the capital in Frankfort to
protest the removal of the
statue of Jefferson Davis
from the capital rotunda.
“This is crazy,” said
Hall. “Jefferson Davis is a
Kentuckian through and
through and a true war
hero. I just don’t understand why anyone would
want to take him out of
the capital? Do they really
think they can change or
erase history simply by
moving a statue?”

Local students complete Entrepreneurial
Leadership Institute at The Center
Lonnie Lawson, right, president and CEO of The Center for Rural Development, and Delaney Stephens, youth programs coordinator and community liaison, present 2015 Entrepreneurial Leadership Institute (ELI) graduate Emily Bolinger, 15, a sophomore at Barbourville High School, with a certificate of achievement for completing the program. She is the
daughter of Mark and Monica Bolinger.
Knox County students Emily Bolinger and Cody Evans
learned what it takes to start and
manage a successful business
venture this summer at The
Center for Rural Development’s
Entrepreneurial Leadership
Institute (ELI).
Bolinger, a member of the
ELI Tying Knots of Love team,
developed a business concept
for a non-profit organization that
teaches patients in hospitals and
nursing home to make no-sew
blankets.
“ELI has given me the confidence to be an entrepreneur,”
said Bolinger, 15, a sophomore
at Barbourville High School. “By
learning to work with others,
you actually learn more about
yourself.”
Evans, 16, a junior at Corbin
High School, was a member of
the ELI Imagination Incorporated—iBox team. His team developed a business concept for a
start-up business that focuses
on creating safe products for a
child’s enjoyment. The iBox is a
combination of Kool Doe, Fun
Flakes glitter, and playful paint.
All of the products are nontoxic
and are created with household
items.
“What I have gained from this
program is some great friendships,” Evans said. “It has been
a huge eye opener to what
entrepreneurship can do for a
community and what you can
accomplish with great people.”
Twenty high school students
from 16 Southern and Eastern
Kentucky counties worked in
teams to create business concepts for three start-up business
ventures, a new cell phone
product, and a non-profit organi-

zation bringing love and comfort
to patients in nursing homes and
hospitals.
“This year’s Entrepreneurial
Leadership Institute was an
exceptional testament to the
talent of young people that
reside in Southern and Eastern
Kentucky,” said Delaney Stephens, youth programs coordinator and community liaison for
The Center. “This region needs
bold, innovative ideas and it was
encouraging to see just that from
these high school participants.”
The University of Kentucky
(UK) College of Agriculture
E-Discovery program has agreed
to donate $300 to each of the
five ELI teams to further develop
their business concepts.
ELI, held July 6-10 at The Center in Somerset, was presented
in partnership with Kentucky
Highlands Investment Corpora-
tion, Eastern Kentucky University, University of the Kentucky
College of Agriculture, Food
and Environment (Community
and Leadership Development
Department), and the Kentucky
Innovation Network.
Ann DeSpain and Melony
Denham, co-developers and
co-teachers of E-Discovery
Challenges You! program,
provided the curriculum for ELI
students.
The program is open to high
school students within The Center’s 45-county primary service
area who have an interest in
building their leadership, business, and entrepreneurial skills.
There is no charge to attend.

Union College to host
National Guard Family
Day event
BY JAY STANCIL
Union College is proud
to announce it will host the
2015 Kentucky National
Guard Family Day on Sunday, Aug. 23. The event will
support service members
and their families from service units in Barbourville,
London and Williamsburg.
The annual event will
bring together personnel
from National Guard units,
their family members and
family support services.
More than 400 people are
expected to attend this
year’s event.
“It is an honor for Union
College to open our doors
and show our support for
the men and women that
serve our country,” said
Monica Clouse, Union Col-
lege Director of Community & Foundation Relations.
“Our families are at the
core of all we do as individuals and we are privileged
to help support the families
of this special part of our
community.” Clouse said this is the
first time the event is
scheduled to take place on
the Union campus.
A highlight of this year’s
event will be a softball
tournament
featuring
teams from each of the
National Guard units. The
tournament will be held
in honor of Sergeant Jonathan Roark, a local resident
and member of the Barbourville unit. Roark, who
was killed earlier this year
in a vehicle accident, regularly participated in softball
leagues within the area. The tournament will
feature teams from the
Barbourville, London and
Williamsburg units plus
one community team consisting of members from
Roark’s community softball team in Barbourville.
The tournament will take
place on Union’s baseball
field, with sports equipment provided by the Bulldog athletic department.
A trophy will be issued to
the winning team with a
clause they return next
year to defend the trophy.
Event organizers hope the
tournament will continue for years to come and
create a lasting tribute to
Roark.
In addition to the softball
tournament, Guard fami-
lies will be treated to a picnic style dinner; children’s
activities, games and inflatables will available and the
Family Readiness Group
will provide support and
resources to all service
members and their families.
The local community is welcome to join in
the event to attend the
softball tournament, participate in activities and
show support for their
military community. The
event will begin at 10 a.m.
Parking will be available
on the Union College
campus near the Patridge
Campus Center.

Something to ease the
back to school blues
Most of us can’t help
but feel summer is almost
over. We took whatever
vacation we had planned
or we hit the pool so
much, it feels like a chore
to do so now. School
supplies fill the shelves
at stores, and yes, school
will be back in session for
most of us. If that statement made ya’ sad, cheer
up, I have the perfect treat
to stuff in those lunchboxes.
My stepdad, Rudy, has
an old cookbook that
looks like it has seen better days. In that tattered
mess is a collection of his
favorite recipes. Some are
scribbled in his handwriting, substitutions or his on
improvements from his
experience. When he and
my mother first married,
I think he felt pressure to
wow us with his skills.
For starters, I remember
when he cooked with
oil. I probably was a little
overdramatic about it,
but I grew up on lard.

look upon each new day as a
gift and feel blessed to have
loyal readers.
I go back to childhood remembering one of the simplest days turns out to be a
wonderful memory.
Bean picking time; my mission took me no further than
a scamper across the cow
pasture on a hot summer day
to fetch a pail of fresh picked
green beans from Aunt Nanny
McCormick’s garden.
To my mind, a scramble
across the pasture on a summer day turned out to be like
an adventure-filled odyssey
that I remember to this day…
As far back as I can remember, grandma’s ritual for canning started by dragging out
her canning equipment, with
bushel baskets of beans to
snap, while sitting on the back
porch.
Grandma called canning
time “putting up” for winter
months.
Our family planted a vegetable garden, but sometimes
bartered with neighbors for
different kinds of vegetables to
satisfy grandma’s variety to fill
her pantry with jars lining the
Memories
Mildred Higgins
shelves to ensure good eating
through the winter months.
Aunt Nanny’s beans were
the best for stringing on threads
to dry, better known as shuck
beans or leather britches.
Aunt Nanny was keeping a
watchful eye for me to arrive
up the garden path from the
pasture that separated our
houses.
Grandma urged me not to
dilly-dally too long at the pond.
She knew I always stopped to
make a wish I hoped to come
true.
The pond was filled with
wiggly tadpoles that held my
attention long enough to see a
beautiful dragonfly take flight
and disappear in the tall pond
plants.
I soon encountered my first
real obstacle, a barbed wire
fence that always snagged my
clothing no matter how careful
I navigated it. This day I managed to free myself, swinging
the empty pail over my head
scooting on through the opening.
Aunt Nanny waited patiently on my arrival; I think it was
a treat for her to see my well
-scrubbed face in spite of my
well-worn clothes. She knew
I was on a mission helping
grandma.
She filled my pail to the top
with beans and reminded me
to be careful on the trip back to
grandma’s.
The loaded pail was heavy
with the beans. I could not
swing it as freely as when it
was empty. I knew Aunt Nanny
was keeping a watchful eye on
my trip back, so I completely
stayed focused until I crossed
the fence. My exploring nature
slowed me down to watch
a beautiful butterfly that appeared to dance on a field
flower, then I crossed the fence
without spilling the beans.
As I think back to that childhood memory, a scramble
across a pasture on a summer’s day to fetch a pail of
beans seemed like an adventure-filled odyssey, participating in a summer ritual preserving a lot more than vegetables.
Millie’s thought for today, author unknown: “Oh the merry
days when we were young, by
hill and forest glen, we chased
the shadows then, none could
blithe as we were young.”
My quote for today; “enjoy
the little things, as for one day
you may look back and realize
they were the big things.”

ways. It has the students
giggling and shaking their
heads from the first page
to the last. The book
always leads to a discussion of how we might use
the rooms in our house a
different, but fun way.
I asked the students
to think about secret
places they could do
their homework with a
parent. This past year
when I suggested that
they do their homework
in the bathtub, one
little girl shrieked, “Mrs.
Bargo, you are silly!
We can’t do homework
in the bathtub cause
it would get all wet!”
Eventually, the students
came up with several
fun places to do their
homework in secret....
under the kitchen table
with a blanket over the
top, under their bed, in
the closet, under a blan-
Hidden Pictures
ket with a flashlight, and
one said that she could
go outside and do her
homework under the
slide. I finally convinced
them that you could
indeed do homework
in the bathtub with the
shower curtain closed
for privacy.... if you
didn’t turn on the water!
My mission was accomplished! I had caused
them to get excited about
doing homework! They
couldn’t wait to get home
and try it! In the end, it’s
all about how the stu-
dents are approached. If
they see parents dreading
homework, they will too!
How did it turn out you
may ask? Well, I did have
a little girl tell me that
she did her homework in
the bathtub full of water. However, I’m really
doubting this happened
because the book came
back to class dry and
wrinkle free!
Parents, I can’t emphasize enough how many
fond memories you can
make with your child if
you become excited with
their work, their accomplishments, and helping
them to overcome something that is preventing
them from learning!

THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE n Thursday, July 23, 2015 n 7B
U.C. awarded nearly $1.5 million for student support services
BY JAY STANCIL
Union College has been awarded nearly $1.5 million from the Department of Education to provide
academic services to its student
body. The grant program provides
funds to postsecondary education
institutions for the implementation
of programs to support academic
development, to assist students
with basic college requirements
and to motivate students toward
successful completion of their
education. The goal of the program
is to increase college retention and
graduation rates of its participants.
Union applied for the grant late last
year. At Union, the grant award will
directly impact student support
services for 175 first-generation,
low-income students as well as
individuals with disabilities, said
Stephanie Smith, Associate Dean
of Student Success. However,
Smith said more than 70 percent
of Union’s students are eligible
for the various programs that fall
under the student support services
umbrella.
“I am very excited to receive the
grant this year and look forward to
establishing new and innovative retention programs for our students,”
Smith said. Smith and her staff work to develop and provide student support
services to students on the Union
campus. This is not the first time
Union has received grant funds to
provide support programs to its
students.
Smith said the grant funding
would provide eligible students at
Union with comprehensive needbased assessments; proactive
academic and career coaching;
a structured first-year experience
program; supplemental instruction; peer mentoring and cultural
enrichment opportunities. With
Union’s facilities and institutional
support, she said, the resources
are available for achieving the
project objectives detailed in the
grant including persistence, good
academic standing and graduation.
“Student Support Services has
been a vital asset to Union College
for years,” Smith added. “We have
aided many students in achieving
their dream of a college degree.”
Union was awarded grant
funds in the amount of $292,340
for the 2015-16 academic year.
It is anticipated the grant will be
utilized over the course of five
years and reauthorized each year
at the same funding level for a
total anticipated award of $1.461
million. Union was one of 21 new
institutional awards in the state of
Kentucky.
